War Relief

Since the outbreak of Russia’s war in Ukraine the Crowe’s have been able to oversee the completion of +40 construction projects which focused on assisting the widow. Each month, their volunteer teams visit and distribute emergency food packages to 500 widows throughout the region. Through their Lighthouse Cafe, various ministries continue to serve the community, including trauma care and support groups for the wives of soldiers actively serving.
